Summary:

Rock solid and runs strong

Faults:

Nothing exactly went wrong with my truck I bought. It was too plain so I had to spice it up.

Only complaints I have is that the truck is ugly stock.

General Comments:

Truck has almost no blindspots, which is a very good thing.

It is rock solid when you have your seatbelt on. Took out a street pole and had it land on my truck with a lot of damage, but no injuries.

It has always been my favorite vehicle, and will continue to be with the price of maintenance being as cheap as it is for the thing, it breaks even in gas mileage.

Fast! (LT1 Power)

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

Good honest review. Your absolutely correct, the narrow A-pillars and driver's ride position nearly eliminate blind spots. Please add more about the power train, LT1 engine and... what else?
